| - I went to Prado during Restaurant Week with my favorite dining companion Mike B. It was my "Last Supper" before getting my tonsils out this week. Since it's Friday night and I just had Jello for dinner, I thought this is a good time to reminisce about Prado and write my very 1st Yelp review.
We had early reservations for Sunday night. Service was great, waiter was handsome (sure, I say it matters), decor was very comfortable and nice. Since it was during restaurant week, our selections were from a limited menu, but the $29 included a glass of wine. Bonus! I have to assume that the Restaurant week menu has smaller servings than the regular menu, because for one of our appetizers, the Day Boat Scallops, was actually one scallop. It was good, but I added salt to it, which I rarely do. For dinner I really enjoyed the flat iron steak, very tender, great flavor. For dessert we tried a Hazelnut cake and a chocolate cake with gelato. I thought the Hazelnut cake was the big winner - light and delicious. I think it's hard to really judge a restaurant during restaurant week, just because it's difficult to tell how things like portions translate to the regular menu (like the one scallop). Now if only I had been smart and scheduled my tonsils to come out AFTER restaurant week, I'd have more restaurants to review. ;)
